36:41 Sorting and organizing the Base Kit and Expansion Pack with an extra sorting box
I'm opening two brand new boxes: the 45678 SPIKE Prime kit and it's an expansion pack, set number 45680. You will see every part inside and get a feel of the possibilities of the set. I'm building a little model, right out of the box, without any programming. This set is like a simpler and more accessible robotics set than the MINDSTORMS EV3. I found myself skeptical at the beginning because the motors and hub are less powerful than EV3, but the easy of building greatly compensates for that. The rechargeable battery is great news too.
